Quite literally, “Frozen” (2013) has shattered princess stereotypes with a beautiful and funny adventure that’s a sure-fire Disney classic. “For the First Time in Forever” says the main song of the movie, and I kind of felt like singing the words too because for the first time in forever, the main characters of a Disney picture are independent females that don’t appear to rely on a guy, or a prince, that solves everything with a smooch. It’s true that

March 14, 2013 Anthropology 101 Dr.Tovar As far back as time goes many old cultures adapted a lifestyle of hunting and gathering food for themselves in order to survive.

“Miley has everything a girl could want, she has millions of dollars.” After Hannah Montana was over, she started to do drugs. Now, she doesn’t make the greatest decisions.

Brother, Can You Spare a Dime? The video, “Brother, Can You Spare a Dime,” gives a good example of market failure in the economy. The video shows how demand and supply are affected. We see how an economy can be booming one minute, and then it all come crashing down the next. We are shown how people can be caught up in the good times, only to have to face dark times to come.
